Since Pete hasn't dropped by and said it yet, definitely try Corb Lund. Great stuff out of Canada. Definitely "alternative" country but not as dark as what's been posted here so far.

Sturgill Simpson makes great alt country.
So does Hank Williams III.

His version of this song from the documentary, Heartworn Highways always hits home for me.

Sturgill's album, Metamodern Sounds in Country Music is absolutely incredible. Check out this psych-country masterpiece, It Ain't All Flowers.

^Word.

Check out Richard Buckner, y'all. He's amazing.

Personally, I'd recommend Steve Earle's 'Copperhead Road' (1988). The title track crossed over to rock radio at the time, which wasn't the norm. Likewise, country radio wouldn't touch it, sadly.

I certainly can't forget The Jayhawks. You can't go wrong with 'Hollywood Town Hall' (1992) or 'Tomorrow The Green Grass' (1995). One of the greatest American rock bands of Gen X that seemingly nobody has ever heard of. A travesty indeed (:()!

The first half. That's good ****. The second half is literally nothing but cheesy ballads.
